Discovered this beautiful place tonight. We came here for my gf Birthday dinner. It was really…read moredelicious and exquisite experience. We were a huge group of 15 people.. I felt super worried about the service and the staff seemed a bit overwhelmed but they delivered greatness! The ambiance was very intimate and small but still lots of tables around to enjoy They made sure that all of us didn't come home hungry! The menu is pretty awesome and lots of food options ! I wasn't in the mood for sushi but definitely changed my mind after I saw other people having it and my mood kicked in suddenly craving for sushi I enjoyed their miso soup it was amazing and delicious fresh just not much tofu so the dish itself was good just missing some tofu in my bowl! Seasoned great though My husband and I decided to share The teriyaki chicken dish .. it was really great . Only thing was the Chicken was a bit dry but the tempura veggies and house salad definitely tasted fresh and amazing. The maki sushis was wonderful 5/5 16pieces pretty tender and very fresh. Thick pieces of avocado and salmon with high end grade sushi grade fish. pretty impressed! Overall the service was attentive and wonderful .. we got our food very quickly even though we were a lot in our group they were able to set up an ordering system into different groups so we could all order effectively.. seemed like it wasn't their first rodeo and are very well prepared for huge groups. Totally recommend this place in general and will be back for sure, their known for their sushi and are one of the best I've tasted in a while very much recommend it Cheers

I heard some good things about this place, how it's one of the more authentic japanese restos in montreal. I went with 2 other people and it was a bit hectic, i felt bad for the waitress as she was rushing between tables so service was a bit lacking. We had to wait for quite some time. We ordered a few items. The food looked good but was quite pricey. The sunomono wasnt really what we were expecting, it was some sort of noodley cold dish and not a salad. The sashimi was good and fresh and the sushi was well prepared. But it wasn't really extraordinary and it was relatively expensive. Because of the price to quality ratio and the lack of service, i dont think I'd come back anytime soon.

Low key and small all you can eat sushi place…read more We went on a Thursday night. They have a pretty good menu items. From what I noticed the menu is the same from Tuesday to Thursday and then they have a separate menu for Friday to Sunday. Some of the rolls were different then other all you can eat places so we tried those. For the weekly menu they do not offer sashimi only nigiris. The price per person is approximately 28$ tax in. I definitely recommend this place. Service was really good and the food was coming out pretty fast. The sushi and the fried stuff were to our liking. We had to call to get reservations because they don't have a website but when we went it seemed like ppl were coming in without reservations The only bad thing about this place was the ice cream, I got the green tea ice cream but it has a powdery feeling/ taste. Which I don't recommend. This place is good for small groups. I would go back definitely

My take on this place may be biased as I live in Southern California where the sushi game is one of…read morethe top in the entire continent of NA so I believe that my expectations may be unfair compared to the locales. Food: The flavor was subpar and the proportion of the sushi has far too much rice while the cuts are too thin/narrow. I didn't feel like I was eating sushi but rather a slice of fish on top of a chunk of rice. Cost: Considering that I was on vacation and the currency conversion was on my side, I didn't mind the price at all. For the variety that was offered, I think it was worth it. Service: The staff was extremely nice. Nothing but good views on them. Atmosphere: I'm a bit confused as to the vibes the restaurant was going for. There was a bar which was great, but the steps/platforms threw me off making me think that we were at a place that possibly had live music at some point?

Located minutes away from Old Montreal, this sushi restaurant is a decent mid-tier establishment…read more You won't be embarrassed taking your in-laws here or going on a first date here. And, you won't break the bank either. Our Chirashi Don consisted of some pretty exotic fish including King Salmon, Blue Fin Tuna and Hamachi (Yellow Tail). Nice presentation, with the slices of fish enveloping a bed of minced salmon and rice. It was a lot more filling then it appeared. The Salmon Yaki included a large serving of fresh salmon and a bowl of rice. This isn't the dry, overcooked salmon you'd get at the food court. The dish also included sauteed mushrooms and zucchini wedges. Salmon was so soft and moist. Wonderful choice if you are hungry. If after your meal, of you are still hungry but running low on cash, you will be pleased to know that there is a Poke Bowl place next door.

Nestled in the heart of downtown Montréal among corporate and commercial buildings, Saiko Bistro…read moreIsakaya may have an unassuming appearance. We had reserved a table. When seated we were changed to the counter seating, because we picked Omakase option. Our evening centered around the Omakase 5 option, which not only allowed us to sample some of the chef's creations but also provided a front-row view at the counter to witness the preparation of each course. The Omakase 5 included two appetizers, a main course, 10 pieces of sushi, and a dessert--a generous and fulfilling selection that left us full and content. A standout dish was the fish consommé, a clear, delicate broth cooked over six hours and served piping hot. The chef guided us to dip each sushi piece halfway into the broth, balancing between warmth and the sushi's coolness. The heavily vinegared rice, when paired with the rich consommé, created a beautiful contrast of flavors, temperature and textures. The sushi course was equally remarkable, presenting ten pieces, each with a small mound of rice topped by a thick, fresh slice of fish. Two King salmon pieces--one marinated for eight hours and the other served raw--showcased the nuanced ways salmon can be enjoyed. The selection of tuna varieties (big-eyed, yellowfin, bluefin, and fatty tuna) provided a spectrum of flavors, each distinct and satisfying. Scallops, shrimp, sea urchin, and eel followed, rounding out a "parade of fish" that captured the freshness and diversity of the ocean. Our meal concluded with a cheesecake dessert, a sweet and light finish that topped off an excellent evening.

My wife and I decided to try this establishment and set a reservation. The place was packed walking…read morein and one of the hostesses (short blonde-haired girl) almost plowed my wife over trying to go by with no regard. Just focused on where she was headed, I assume but still. Ironically on our way out the same hostess was coming back through and again almost knocked my wife over and bumped me as I pulled my wife out of the way. Again, no regard. I honestly think she didn't even notice, just so focused. So, my suggestion would be to be aware of your surroundings so you're not trampling the patrons. The pictures of the space are misleading. I thought the space would be bigger. It made it feel like you were on top of others. Nice quaint dark charge just compact. I had reserved the sushi bar. Now we had expected to be able to see what the chefs were doing but due to the height of the wood bar that was impossible. Also, we had expected a more personalized experience as where the chefs interact as had previously at other Japanese restaurants in Jamaica, the U.S. and while living in Japan. Here they just make up the orders. I would suggest a table to anyone since they do not interact, you're just getting a lot of noise. Also, you are in a high traffic spot for the employees coming and going from the back. All this aside the real surprise was the menu. It is unique as previewed online via their website prior to make a reservation. But found to be misleading/poorly formatted. The section for Sushi Rolls be it 6 or 8 pieces, at the top of each respective page states in red with parenthesis (6 pieces) and the other page (8 pieces). Below are the various rolls laid out with next to each one in red with parenthesis either a (6) or (8) depending on which page you are on. Now I assumed this was the price per roll as I found most menus in Montreal have a format of i.e. 00, 00.00, (0), (0$), 00$, and 00.00$. With a few in place of the $ sign using CAD. I did not think that if a page is already labeled at the top that anyone would format redundantly the amount given. And the actual price is 4 times that. Now I am not saying they aren't making a quality product. It was all very delicious. Presentation was impeccable but honestly to us it wasn't over the top or within reason of the price. I would have to say this is the most expensive sushi I have had. I believe mine was 37 CAD ($27 US). In the U.S. typically I'd say rolls range from $6-$20 USD. The cost didn't really matter, just wasn't expecting it. And again, the rolls are unique, normally not found elsewhere and were delicious. I just think the website should reflect the price of and not the amount when itis already stated, it is just misleading. Also note if your look at the drink's menu online, there are no parenthesis but to the right of each beverage item in red is a number indicating the price. So, you really shouldn't have it on one menu then be different on another. Drink wise I started with NIKKA MIYAGIKYO PEATED 2021 SINGLE MALT for 35$ (25 USD). I had never heard of it, but I like smokey drinks. A quick check showed this bottle goes for around $250USD. So, I'd say the price equates properly. But I also based this on a shot (being 1.5oz or 44.4ml). When it came out in the standard 6oz whiskey glass it was barely visible. I'd guess based on having these glasses maybe 1/2 an ounce. So, someone either really mis poured or...... I hadn't even tasted yet when another server (we had 2 it seems) came by and asked if I would like another drink and went to take the glass. I said I hadn't even tried it yet. He apologized and said he thought the glass was empty, so that is saying something. On the note of drinks, under sake you can find 300ml DASSAI 45 JUNMAI DAI GINJO for 85$ ($62 USD), this generally sells for about $35 USD. Literally around the corner @ Gyu-Kaku (Japanese hibachi) they sell it on their menu for (300ml) 55$ ($40 USD). Hidden Fish is a 42% markup over retail. Now dessert, amazing. Not found online. I ordered this cheesecake mouse with coconut cream top and an anglaise base. My wife, who is not big on desserts, took a taste then pretty much ate the whole thing. If for nothing else, we would go back to just have this dessert again. And I am kind of curious about the other options.
